00:00Week four of the NFL is officially in the books and joining me now to break
00:04down the weekend is Grant Cohn from all 49ers and Noah Strachbein from all
00:09Steelers. Grant let's go to you first. The San Francisco 49ers defeated the LA Rams
00:14a big night for the defense seven sacks on quarterback Matthew Stafford. What
00:18were your biggest takeaways from last night? Seven sacks and a pick six to seal it.
00:22They gave up nine points and scored seven on their own. The defense looks
00:26like the best in the league like it might have a chance to be really really
00:30special and then that changes the equation for the Niners. If the defense
00:34can be all-time great then Jimmy Garoppolo doesn't have to be a pro
00:37bowler he just has to be a game manager and that like his job is don't throw an
00:41interception tonight please please and he didn't last night he came close but
00:45Debo caught the ball and actually Jimmy Garoppolo's worst throw of the night was
00:50a touchdown a 57-yard touchdown that Debo Samuel took all the way so it's
00:55hard to say that Jimmy Garoppolo can be that game manager he was last night he
01:00needs to going forward and let's see if he can. All right now let's go to you
01:04over in Pittsburgh the Steelers made a quarterback change I'm sure that's your
01:09biggest takeaway of the week but what impressed you the most about this weekend?
01:12Yeah it obviously has to be Kenny Pickett and I think that's what
01:16impressed me the most is this is the first time all season the Steelers
01:21offense actually looks like it had a quote-unquote spark which is what Mike
01:25Tomlin said that they made the change to do was to look and finally get
01:29something to click offensively I think Kenny Pickett brought that he rushed for
01:33two touchdowns he did throw three interceptions but for a rookie to be put
01:36in there at halftime it's a tough situation it's hard to judge that I
01:41think overall this is the first time that he'll get a start in Buffalo it's
01:45it's the Kenny Pickett era now in Pittsburgh something that a lot of fans
01:50are looking forward to but that's the biggest takeaway is can they ride off of
01:54this momentum turn it into a win and get going with the rookie at quarterback
